Even so, we are living in the present

Chapter 14 – “Good Boy”

“Yuu… what a beautiful, fair body you have…”

After undressing Yuu with his own hands, Reito took off his own clothes, revealing a body that was unexpectedly more muscular than Yuu’s, and urged him to enter the bathroom while holding his slender waist as if he was caressing it.

“… Um…”

Yuu’s lips, which were trying to express reservedly, were covered by Reito’s fingertips.

“All you have to do is keep quiet, Yuu. I’ll wash your body for you.”

“… Un…”

Without being able to say anything back, he turned over and bit his lower lip. Following Reito’s prompting, he stepped into the bathroom, and the door was closed by Reito’s hand.

After Kyosuke returned home all alone, he sat down on the sofa in the living room with his smartphone in his hand, wondering if he would receive any notifications. In his other hand, he held the key that Yuu had given him. Handing over the key to his home implied that there may be a circumstance in which he would require the use of it.

Yuu must have summoned all the courage he could muster to avoid Reito from realizing what he had done.

After all, there was something about Reito. Kyosuke spent a period of time that could be called simply long with such a sense of tension.

Without realizing that Yuu was in danger──

​────────

The palm of Reito’s hand meticulously and thoroughly washed Yuu’s body, which was wrapped in vinyl preventing his right arm from getting wet.

Touching his body as if hugging him from behind, he caressed his neck, back, flanks, collarbone, chest… and abdomen, and then to his lower abdomen──

“No… uncle, that place is…”

Yuu’s left hand hastily restrained the other’s movement. His breathing was erratic from the fear that had begun to sprout; his body was shaking; his voice had lost its composure. Looking at Yuu’s face from behind over his shoulder, Reito’s lips brushed against his white cheek.

“Don’t worry about it. When you were little, I used to wash you like this.”

He laughed joyfully under his breath and continued to move his hand despite Yuu’s resistance.

“B-But…”

Disregarding his voice brimming with anxiety, Yuu’s inner thigh was stroked, and when Reito’s fingertips touched the embarrassing part without hesitation, Yuu’s body trembled reflexively.

“… Nngh, don’t, Uncle…”

With only his left hand, he desperately attempted to resist by pushing the opposite party’s body. Even that resistance, however, was blocked by his hand. Reito went around in front of Yuu and looked into his face.

“Hey, Yuu… call me ‘Reito’.”

“Eh…?”

His right eye, which drooped at the end of his brow with apprehension, timidly exchanged glances with Reito.

As usual, Reito opened his mouth with a gentle and soothing smile.

“I have always loved Yuu. Until recently, I only thought of you as a cute nephew… but now that you’ve become so beautiful and asked for my help… I can’t bear it any longer… I wanted to make you all to myself. Even though Yuu is a boy, I don’t know why… I don’t understand it myself.”

The other party’s breath was somewhat raspy. Even the tone of his voice was loaded with emotions that could hardly be described as calming and left a sense of unusual insecurity.

“Uncle…”

“Yuu, what did I say to you earlier?”

A gentle but irrefutable undertone reverberated through the bathroom. Yuu’s lips quivered several times as he turned his head over and obeyed in a muffled voice.

“… Reito.”

When he asked him to address him by his name, the other party was delighted, stroking Yuu’s head and kissing his cheek repeatedly.

“Good boy, Yuu… I love you. You can entrust me with the accident, the funeral, and everything… In return, just be a good boy. I’ve got the money all set up for you, so you don’t have to worry.”

“… Yeah… Thanks…”

He didn’t want to be lonely anymore. To keep the connection with Reito, Yuu chose to be a ‘good boy’ in front of him.

That was the way it was supposed to be.

However, wondering what he was thinking, Reito’s behavior began to escalate, and he pushed Yuu’s body, which needed to recuperate, down to the bathroom floor, sitting on his feet, and began to wrap his long fingers around the exposed male symbol and handle it.

“Ah, nnn… Reito…”

If forced to bring him pleasure, a sad voice called his name, causing Reito to smile with jubilation.

“Cute… Yuu, doesn’t it feel good?”

The other’s fingertips touched not only the lower abdomen but also his chest.

“Nn… urgh… I don’t know…”

Not feeling any pleasure in having his body toyed with, and not understanding what it meant to be a ‘good boy’ when he had agreed to stay with the other party; neither what was being done to him now nor what the other party wanted from him was comprehensible, Yuu could only shed tears and continue panting in a small, gravelly voice.

Kyosuke… I, what should I do…?

In the quiet bathroom, Yuu’s lonely voice and Reito’s wild laughter resounded.
